Notes

"We are no longer like our ancestors. We no longer depend on our skills as foragers, gatherers, scavengers, hunters and fishers for food. We are only part-time food raisers at best. Our biology, on the other hand, has changed far less. Now there is a mis-match between who we are and what we eat. And it is in the gap created by this mis-match that chronic diseases can take root"--Publisher information.
